Existing models of the solar atmosphere predict a limb brightening in the far infrared wavelengths. At shorter wavelengths this effect is confined to the extreme limb but at 25 a it extends inward from the limb to cos 0 = 0.3. Observations of I(a)/I(1.0) were made with the McMath Solar Telescope thr
The center-to-limb variation (CLV) of several infrared carbon lines and the infrared continuum intensity around 1.75/zm were measured. The results were compared with theoretical predictions using four different photospheric models. It was found that the model by Holweger and Mi.iller (1974) describe
A method to determine the emission measure and hence the effective extension of solar flares is described. The conditions for the Balmer continuum to be visible in disk flares is also considered. The concept of the effective mass is introduced and it is shown that this mass is a little less than tha
